Registration for the tournament is closed. Over the weekend, the admin of the World Championship website will create the ladder, and in the meantime, the draw results can be downloaded here.
Try to find out your opponent's nickname as soon as possible and get in touch with them. If your opponent's ICQ number is not specified in the ladder, try to contact them via e-mail. If you are unable to reach them by Monday, you must inform me, and I will replace them, or, in the absence of reserve players, award a technical victory. Ask me all contentious questions in a private message; if necessary, they will be reviewed by the judges (Pit, Neo, and someone from the Polish contingent). The deadline for the first round is through April 25 inclusive. Try not to postpone your games until the last moment, as three games may be needed to determine the stronger player in a pair. I will not grant extra time for playing matches from the first rounds; perhaps such an opportunity will arise closer to the final.

Now, from an outside observer's perspective. The lineup turned out pretty great. Some strong players from the CIS and the rest of the world did not register, but the participation of figures such as AlexTheGreat, Stinger, KobRa, Maretti, and black_knight gives us the right to call this tournament the strongest in terms of participant selection over the last 5 years (on SoD) and truly international. What else is needed for a World Championship? :)
